cabal23 Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 CMMODS is closing down so if you have files up on there you need to make sure they make it to the repository, which will soon be your only source for mods and scenarios. A very sad day. Their no frills, easy to navigate website breathed new life into the BF games. It is shame we must see it go. I know I speak for everyone when I say thanks for the SIX years of supporting BF games CMMODS. We will miss you!!!! Make sure you let them know you appreciate everything they have done....here: cozog@cozog.com 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwolf Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 FYI, all CMBB and CMAK mods have been pulled into one repository that will be redistributed off-line. If you want to do this for CM:SF material somebody else will have to step in, it was not covered by the above sweep. Same applies to CMBO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 I salute cmmods.com Columbusohgamer went above and beyond the call of duty for CM. He pretty much 'made' CMx1. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holman Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Many thanks to cmmods for years--literally years--of service to this community. I always relied on the site for getting the latest and best scenarios, especially due to the rating system. I donated a bit of money some time ago. I wish I could have given more. Again, thank you cmmods. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Field Marshal Blücher Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 I never knew the guy, but CMMODS was an absolutely fantastic resource and I thank him for all of his efforts. Best of luck to him! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackMoria Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Before we all decide to hold a wake for CMMODS, why don't we see if someone wants to step up to the plate to host the site and ask Columbusohgamer if he would okay with a 'change of command' ceremony and hand it off to someone. Unfortuately, that someone isn't me as I have enough RL issues of my own to preclude me. Still, CMMODS can be saved if someone steps up and Columbusohgamer is okay with it. Just saying.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cabal23 Posted March 18, 2009 Author Share Posted March 18, 2009 I second this..who wants to be legendary in the wargame circles for taking over one of the greatest BF resources ever? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Well, if nobody steps up I guess BFC's Repository is going to see a big spike in use as modders and scenario designers post their salvaged work to the site. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
handihoc Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Many thanks ,Todd. CMMODS has been a lifeline for myself and many like me for many years. You've provided a fantastic service and I hope you know how much we have appreciated it. I - and I'm sure, everyone else here - wishes you every success from here on. Salute! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivodsi Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 I'll add my thanks for providing the place from which I downloaded thousands of megabytes of pure wargaming pleasure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwolf Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I have been unsuccessful in establishing contact. I'd take the site in a heartbeat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theFightingSeabee Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I hope you do, but if not, we'll have to give ol' cmmods the 21 gun salute. I've posted quite a few things on there and downloaded just about every mod for cmsf. Cmmods will be missed. And I sincerely hope him and his wife are OK. I know she's been fighting sickness for some time and I can only send them the best of wishes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodkin Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Very sad, as the first post states it was a simplistic site but very easy to navigate, sort and download from. Unfortunately so far the repository hasn't provided the same experience. I'd hope everyone here including BFC would recognise the service above and beyond the call of duty that Columbusohgamer provided for many years keeping the games alive despite obvious family issues that were going on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I can't recall whether or not I ever availed myself of Cmmods' services, but anything that contributed to the life and health of the CM community profited me in some way or other. So please accept my thanks and best wishes as well. Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyD Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 His site says 'Real Life' issues caused the shut down. Considering the state of the economy we could make some pretty safe assumptions what happened. Believe me, I can relate 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcpilot Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Elmar said it, the end of an era. Ive downloaded many a mod from CMMODS. Thank you for all the time and effort you spent Todd, its been much appreciated. God bless to you and your wife. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I once counted up how many of my own mods I uploaded to cmmods.com. I think I passed 300. And that was about 3 years ago! 'Virtual modeling' using CM vehicles completely replaced my old longstanding kit hobby habit and cmmods.com played a large part in that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Splinty Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I can't count the number of mods and scenarios I D/L 'ed from CMMODs Todd. Enough to completely mod CMBO,BB,AK and quite a bit of SF though! Good Luck and many thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stingray Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Thank you so much for all you have done to make the CM-XX games much more enjoyable. I think I downloaded all but a very few mods from your site. Good luck and God bless 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
